Man City more united after Premier League charges verdict, says boss Maresca

Manchester City's players and supporters have grown closer since the club was found guilty of breaching Premier League financial rules, according to head coach Enzo Maresca. An independent commission ruled in favor of the Premier League, finding City guilty of 114 out of 115 charges. Despite the charges, Maresca believes the club's unity has strengthened in the wake of the verdict.

Club captain Ruben Dias even suggested that people dislike City's success, which fuels the team's desire to win. Maresca emphasized that the club and fans need to create their own noise, such as winning matches at Anfield or upcoming fixtures. The coach acknowledged that the outside scrutiny has not added any additional stress, as he remains focused on the team's performance.

City remains atop the Premier League with six wins from six matches, and Maresca aims to bounce back from a recent home defeat against Paris St Germain. Former City manager Pep Guardiola attended the PSG match, with Maresca expressing his gratitude for Guardiola's presence and positive outlook on the team.
